The 'EastEnders' actress - who plays Ruby Allen in the BBC One soap - celebrated the upcoming birth of her first child with a second baby shower over the weekend, and she was grateful to her mother Jane.

She wrote on Instagram: "My mum, she created the most special day, thank you for all that you do for me, but especially this [heart emoji] I am so proud of you (sic)"

As well as being treated to a giant cake and several balloons, Louisa's childhood pals serenaded her in what was an emotional moment.

She wrote on her Instagram Stories: "I'll never forget this.

"My childhood best friends singing for me and my baby..

"Hearing them sing together makes me prouder than they will ever know (sic)"

Louisa - who is expecting her first child with her fiance Ben Bhanvra - had a surprise baby shower in June, but the star admitted afterwards she wished she didn't feel "so nervous" about the occasion.

She said at the time: "Still not over this day. I was so nervous about a 'baby shower' the thought was very overwhelming. Celebrating before it's arrived, I said no to presents too. I just wanted to 'see my friends' instead. Well I wish I never built it up so much it was just perfect all my girls made the most effort to come and remind me just how lucky bump and I are to have them. Mums throwing me a baby shower in July with 30 family and friends this time I'm going for it (sic)"

Louisa revealed her pregnancy in March by sharing an adorable video on Mother's Day (14.03.21).
